Consumer Description

I OWN A 2008 SCION XD (AKA COROLLA HATCHBACK) THAT HAS STEERING PROBLEMS EVER SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW IN 2008. THE VEHICLE HAS ELECTRICAL POWERED STEERING. IT IS DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE CAR IN THE LANE WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT TENDS TO WANDER AROUND IN THE LANE AND REQUIRES CONSTANT MONITORING TO AVOID DRIFTING INTO OTHER LANES. I AM EXPECTING TO BE PULLED OVER FOR DRUNK DRIVING SOMEDAY. MY WIFE DROVE IT ONE TIME AND NOW REFUSES TO DRIVE IT. THE STEERING PROBLEM HAS BEEN EVIDENT SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT IT. NOTE====> VEHICLE IS SCION XD <============ (XD IS NOT AVAILABLE FROM THE DROP DOWN MENU ON THE NEXT PAGE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *TR
